My exboyfriend and I dated for 2 years. We both were each other's first love! I was his first real girlfriend, first everything basically. And that's why I let him go, because I felt that he needed to see what else is out there for him. He may not really know what he wants until he gets a taste of it. It was one of the hardest choices I made. I cried for months, I can't believe I let my love slip away. But you know, he's at a very good place now- I'm happy for him even though secretly I'm crushed that he moved on. I think I made the best choice-- it's selfish to hold somebody back. Trust me, there were times where I felt I made the mistake of letting him go. It's not easy-actually, it was torture! But I tell myself over and over: Love is not selfish, Love is patience. Its pure and true. Those words helped me- you expel thoughts like stalking your ex, or calling him excessively, out of your mind. This could ease your mind and mend your broken heart. It's the healthiest, in my opinion and when you do overcome this, you're gonna be a better person than you were before. seriously.
